I have a Kindle 3. When I download a new book on my kindle it has a 'new' flag right near the title. I have browsed through most of the books but I haven't read them. Now the 'new' flag is gone. Is there any way to get it back? I have 80+ books in this situation. Maybe deleting some files where the bookmarks are stored?

If you look at the "documents" folder, you'll find that there are two files associated with the book: one is the book itself, which will have a ".azw" extension; the other file has a ".mbp" extension and stores your reading position, bookmarks, annotations, and so on. Delete the ".mbp" file.

Our bookmarks, furthest position and annotations are also stored on the Kindle server. Will deleting the MBP file on one device result in the same effect on all devices after syncing?

I use a 3rd Generation Kindle Keyboard, a Kindle Fire and a Kindle 4 PC.

I had a book that kept syncing to the end because I accidentally selected the last chapter from the table of contents on my KT when I was trying to page forward. I set my Kindle and my Android Kindle app back to page 1. Both would continuously try and sync to the end. I deleted the book from both and re-downloaded. It still tried to sync to the end.

I had to contact Kindle customer service via online chat and have them reset the furthest page read. I requested that this be a feature users can do themselves but I am going to guess it fell on deaf ears.

I've seen a myriad of schemes that all claim to reset the furthest read page (without cracking the book—converting it and/or basically making it new). I've tried them all. The only fool-proof way that works 100% of the time is:
